AI coding agents that run in the cloud. No computer needed. Most mobile coding apps connect your phone to your own computer, so that computer has to stay on. Vibe Pocket works differently. You get your own cloud workspace, and your AI agent works there. Start a task from your phone, close the app, and the agent finishes the job. Come back later to read the reply, check the changes and run the result. CHOOSE YOUR AGENT Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, Muse Code by Meta, Grok Build, Gemini and Antigravity, and more. Add more than one agent to the same workspace and switch between them. CHAT WITH IT Describe a feature, a fix or a question in plain words. Pick the model and how hard it should think, then send. Replies, file changes and errors show up right in the chat. SIGN IN FROM CHAT Use the AI plan you already have, or an API key. Sign in to your agent account inside the chat with a device code or a pasted code. No terminal steps. SEE AND RUN YOUR CODE - Editor: open and edit files with syntax highlighting. - Run: start your app in the workspace and open it, or share a preview link. - Projects: keep several projects in one workspace, see Git changes and commit. - Terminal: there whenever you want full control. START IN SECONDS Start from an empty project, one of your GitHub repositories or any public repository. Your files stay in your workspace between sessions. PLANS Vibe Pocket is a monthly subscription. You bring your own AI plan or API key; we do not sell model credits, and AI usage is billed by your provider. - Lite: 1 workspace. Sleeps after 20 minutes idle. - Plus: 3 workspaces. Sleeps after 2 hours idle. - Pro: 5 workspaces. Always on, never sleeps. On every plan, a task that is already running finishes even if you close the app. A sleeping workspace wakes up when you open it again. GOOD FOR Quick fixes on the go, trying an idea from the couch, keeping a side project moving, or checking on a long task from your phone. Code from your phone. No computer needed.
